Australian space industry pioneer and new Vice-Chancellor

01 February 2022, 12:45 - 01 February 2022, 13:45
Meet Australian space industry pioneer and new Vice-Chancellor and President at the University of Technology, Professor Andrew Parfitt. 
Join the Sydney Rotary Meeting on Zoom 
12.45pm Tuesday 1 February 2022.
Due to an Omicron summer, our first meeting of the year will be on Zoom rather than face to face. Details and a link will be uploaded soon.
We are delighted to welcome Professor Parfitt who will outline his vision for UTS. He’ll discuss how the university has coped with the Covid pandemic and the resulting lockdowns, border closures to international students and reduced cash flow.  We look forward to finding out from him what UTS has learnt from the crisis and where to from here. He’ll be happy to answer other questions including, of course, how the Residential Indigenous College is progressing.
And we might even touch on the future of the Australian space industry!
Our steady rise in international rankings over a number of years shows that UTS has been on the right track in a long program of investment in research and teaching and the kind of campus that will support innovation in both. ”
